Abstract

As we are increasingly using new technologies to change ourselves beyond therapy and in accordance with our own desires, understanding the challenges of human enhancement has become one of the most urgent topics of the current age. This volume contributes to such an understanding by critically examining the pros and cons of our growing ability to shape human nature through technological advancements. The authors undertake careful analyses of decisive questions that will confront society as enhancement interventions using bio-, info-, neuro- and nanotechnologies become widespread in the years to come. They provide the reader with the conceptual tools necessary to address such questions fruitfully. What makes the book especially attractive is the combination of conceptual, historical and ethical approaches, which makes it highly original. In addition, the well-balanced structure of the volume allows both favourable and critical views to be voiced. Moreover, the work has a crystal clear structure. As a consequence, the book is accessible to a broad academic audience. The issues raised are of interest to a wide reflective public concerned about science and ethics, as well as to students, academics and professionals in areas such as philosophy, applied ethics, bioethics, medicine and health management.

Abstract

'De mens voorbij' is een gedreven zoektocht naar de denkkaders die mee aan de basis lagen van de uitroeiing van mentaal, fysiek en raciaal gehandicapte mensen in de eerste helft van de 20ste eeuw. Dat was, anders dan we graag geloven, geen breuk in onze beschaving maar een ontsporing. Een catastrofale uitloper van de maakbaarheids- en vooruitgangsideologie, dat veelbelovende geesteskind van de VerlichtingDit boek beschrijft, in niet helemaal onpartijdige termen, hoe in de Verlichting het ideaal opkomt, radicaal en utopisch, van een maakbare wereld zonder intolerantie, ziekte, armoede en andere ellende. Alle kaarten worden gezet op het middel van de rede en de wetenschap, met als ultieme doel de rechten van de mens. Dit doel slaat om in zijn tegendeel zodra de biologie de eugenetica voortbrengt en de politiek de mogelijkheid krijgt om direct aan de mens zelf te sleutelen, met alle racistische consequenties van dien. De genetische kennis zal na WOII enorm toenemen, haar toepassing wordt commercieel en individueel. Maar het blijft een middel dat met menswaardigheid niet valt te verenigen
